User Feedback :: tar?



i want to untar a compressed file, i have some experience in using the tar command when i used shells, about 2 years ago, ive forgotten the usage of this command x.x

how do i uncompress a tar.gz file using the tar command?
thanks
tar zxvf filename.tar.gz ? :O
Actually,

I think its:

tar -zxvf filename.tar.gz


but I could be wrong.
either way
